I hope to be there, pick a place/time, DK.
But not the 2nd, cause the current wife is being dumped at LAX (Russia this time), and not the 3rd.cause the Mad Dentist is going to cut on me.

Ken, last year I got the DVD 'Baja Flo 3' and it came with a tee shirt!
SCORE has the Baja 1000 planned course on display along with SCORE shirts, etc.

You mean to lift it more than the factory provided height adjustment? Not sure when the stopped offering that, but it seems to me my '87 4WD Subaru
wagon had front and rear height adjustment.
Really bummed that Subaru ended the 4WD line and went to AWD, no low range, etc.
Best to do a Google search... but I will look for you!

Are you trying to put bigger tires than the 13" ? You get into gear-ratio/ power issues if so.
I have gotten a Subaru Brat and my wagon all the way into Matomi Canyon back in '78 and Mexray got his in there in 2001... all on 13" tires...
About 4 miles from the oasis:
A little further:
There was some 'mods' done... Mike Humfreville was riding with Mexray in the Brat... To help with ground clearance, Mike moved to the bed of my truck,
where I set up my camping chair for him to sit in, facing back. In this photo taken by elgatoloco, You can see Mike's head above the cab of my
Tacoma... following my truck into the Matomi Narrows is Mexray in the Brat:
Photo by Amo Pescar of the Brat entering the Matomi Narrows:

Hmmm... well, they are in Oz (Australia) and it looks good... I see mostly 14" tires (tyres) mentioned... Are you prepaired for the transmission work
involved. Having all that ground clearance but no power to roll the tires may be an issue? If there are any Subaru mechanics in your area, I would
definetly chat with them about all this... Keep getting details.
